In absentia

~*~

Inaccessible
No love might enter therein
In absentia

~*~

You grasp the king’s key
Confirmation in your hands
No knave shall pick locks

~*~

All the king’s silver
Royal prerogative yours
Arms bearing Leo

~*~

Off to battle, swift!
Hold fast to heart, this, her pledge
As soft her lips meld

~*~

Inaccessible
No love might enter therein
In absentia

Don't discuss yourself, you are bound to lose; if you belittle yourself, you are believed; if you praise yourself, you are disbelieved. Michel de Montaigne

reminds me of a medieval device of which I've heard...certainly reduces the beauty of this to a rather horrendous object

flowery words DO have a place, I guess

Too bad Bathsheba's husband failed to use it before he went off to war...but then, that would have rewritten a profound piece of history. Oh, my, I do go off on tangents. Did you see what color it was so I can ask some one to spot me and bring me back?

Decaflame, a wondeful collection of Haiku's you have penned, forming a beautiful poem.

I adore it!
